always load from the hard drive before the operating system
loads. This procedure allows the operating system to load from
floppy disk.
If floppy boot protection is enabled and you do not follow this
procedure, EZ-BIOS will not load and your hard drive will be
inaccessible. If floppy boot protection is disabled and you do
not follow this procedure, EZ-BIOS will not load and your
system BIOS will incorrectly access your hard drive. This can
result in data loss.
